3 Flames Trade Proposals for Noah Hanifin
March 4, 2024 by Rupert McDonald
The Calgary Flames continue to be the most talked about team as the trade deadline approaches. While they moved out Chris Tanev last week, they aren’t done yet, as Noah Hanifin is also expected to be traded.
Hanifin, a pending unrestricted free agent, is having a solid season with the Flames, averaging almost 24 minutes a night, and is up to 11 goals and 35 points in 60 games. He is the best defenceman who remains on the market, and several teams are reportedly interested. Three of the top teams are the Florida Panthers, Boston Bruins, and New Jersey Devils. After talking to some writers for those teams, here are my trade proposals.
Bruins Buy or Sell: Maple Leafs, Trade Deadline, Lohrei & Sweeney
March 4, 2024 by Scott Roche
Since the All-Star Break, things have not gone well for the Boston Bruins. They have fallen behind the Florida Panthers in the Atlantic Division and they look nothing like the team they were earlier in the season. This week, the last chance for General Manager (GM) Don Sweeney to add to his team is on March 8 with the NHL trade deadline. This season, his club needs multiple upgrades and additions and it’s unlikely he will be able to address all of them. It’s even questionable whether or not he will be able to address some of them.
Bruins Rookie Spotlight: Justin Brazeau
March 2, 2024 by Hannah Garfield
February was not a great month for the Bruins. Even though they are currently sitting in second place in the Atlantic Division (trailing the Florida Panthers), there is some cause for concern with their recent inability to win in regulation and the trend of giving up leads in the third period. With their cap situation, lack of a first-round pick this year, and a prospect pool that many consider weaker, it’ll be hard for Don Sweeney and the front office to pull off a big trade deadline move to bring in assistance. This means help will have to come from within the organization.
